Hey Mike, I would recommend going with a size larger with the Progressive Dynamics part #PD89RR as having more amperage than needed is better than not enough. If you went down in amperage your charging system wouldn't be able to keep up as well…
Hey welcome back, Jody. So your best option here will be to get a new 50 amp surge protector for your new travel trailer. If you did end up at a camp ground with 50 amp service you would want to have it. I know a lot of sites do have just 30 amp but…
Yes, it will work. You'll just need to cut the Lance 6-pin connector out and rewire it into the etrailer Trailer Wiring 7-Way Upgrade Kit w/ Junction Box and RV Style Connector item #e99011. Here are the individual functions of that Lance 6-pin:…
Hey David, thanks for reaching out! The closest combination we can get for you is the SmartPlug RV/Marine Data Port Inlet #SM36MJ and then getting the Keystone Single Jack Ethernet Connector #SM38MJ along with the ethernet adapter for your Starlink…
Thanks for the picture! I checked with Progressive Dynamics the replacement power converter you need for your Parallax Series 7300 Model 7345 is the Replacement Converter for Parallax/Magnetek or WFCO RV Power Centers - 45 Amp item #PD4645V.
Hey Bud. It doesn't say you can't put the Watchdog Power Center Surge Protector and Voltage Booster item #HU74ZR on its back but you are going to block some of the ventilation. The unit does warm up and it will shut off if the internal…
We have run into this quite a few times in the past, and the best option will be replacing the Lance 7-pin connector with a standard 7-way blade connector like the #PK12706. This will give you a standard 7-way connector to plug into the factory 7-way…
Hey Tyson! The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs item #AL88289 have a built in jounce bumper similar to a bump stop, whereas the item #AL57289 does not. These are helpful if you want to run your air bags with little or no air…
Hello Andrew, Well that sounds like quite the fun trip, what state or states will you be traveling through? You're asking a really important question, especially since you're planning a cross-country trip with about 250 pounds of bikes and…
In order to determine the torque rating for the lug nuts on your trailer you will need to know check out the chart I attached that shows all of the torque specs for all the trailer lugs available based on stud size, wheel material and wheel size.
Hello Paul, thanks for reaching out. The Mighty Cord RV Power Cord #A10-5025EDBK is a 50 amp cord, so as long as your camper is also set up for 50 amp service this would be compatible for you.
Congrats on the new trailer! I recommend the Portable Power Watchdog Surge Protector with Bluetooth, WiFi, and Emergency Shut Down - 50 Amp item #HU62VR over item #HU92VR because of it's ability to automatically turn back on once the power…

What’s the difference between a 30-amp and a 50-amp RV power system?
A 30-amp system delivers up to 3,600 watts—great for small to mid-size RVs. A 50-amp system provides up to 12,000 watts, powering multiple A/Cs and large appliances. Knowing your power needs ensures you don’t trip breakers or overload your system.
How do I keep my RV’s electrical system protected?
Campground power isn’t always reliable, and one bad surge can fry your electronics. A quality surge protector prevents voltage spikes from damaging your appliances. Power management systems add extra protection by shutting off power when voltage levels are unsafe.
What does an RV power converter do, and do I need one?
A converter transforms 120V AC shore power into 12V DC for your lights, water pump, and fans—while also charging your batteries. If you camp with hookups or a generator, a converter is essential for keeping your 12V system powered and balanced.
How can I power my RV when camping off-grid?
Use a solar panel kit to recharge batteries without noise or fuel. A generator or portable power station gives you backup power for high-draw appliances. Combining solar and battery banks allows for extended off-grid stays with quiet, efficient power.For a breakdown of what solar can handle based on your setup, check out What Can You Run on Solar Power? to build a system that fits your needs.
How do I safely plug my RV into shore power?
Always test the power source first with a polarity tester or voltmeter. Use a surge protector or electrical management system to protect your RV. If the outlet type doesn’t match your plug, use a compatible dogbone adapter to avoid damage or incompatibility.
